Taylor Swift's near fall during 'Vigilante S**t' performance on Eras Tour in Tokyo draws flak
TOKYO, JAPAN: Trolls have once again targeted Taylor Swift with verbal attacks, sparked by a viral clip showing her nearly stumbling during a performance on her Eras Tour in Tokyo.
But it's not just this incident that's drawn criticism. Swift has also faced scrutiny recently over the lack of confirmation regarding a parking slot for her private jet at the Super Bowl in Las Vegas.
Travis Kelce, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, addressing the matter amid their preparations for the Super Bowl clash against the 49ers, expressed doubts about the NFL's provision of a parking spot for Swift's private jet. He mentioned his intention to seek clarification from higher authorities on the matter.
In addition to facing trolls, Swift has been making headlines among her fans. Kelce's comparison of his relationship with the 'Lover' singer to a "wild ride" and his praise for her upcoming album, 'The Tortured Poets Department', has stirred excitement among fans.

As reported by Daily Mail, Swift experienced a rare onstage moment when she nearly slipped off her chair during a passionate performance on her 'Eras Tour' in Tokyo on Wednesday.
The songstress, set to fly back to the United States over the weekend to cheer on her boyfriend Kelce at the Super Bowl, was in the middle of performing her popular track 'Vigilante S**t'.
As per Daily Mail, during a sequence where she squatted with her legs open before slowly descending onto a chair, Swift, adorned in a midnight blue leotard, misjudged the chair's position and was observed stumbling before regaining her balance, as seen in the viral clip on platform X (formerly Twitter).

Swift resumed her tour shortly after the Grammy Awards, where she secured her fourth consecutive Album of the Year award for her 2023 album 'Midnights'.
With performances in Tokyo scheduled until February 10, there were speculations about her timely return to the United States to support her boyfriend at the Super Bowl on February 11. However, the Embassy of Japan recently issued a statement reassuring fans, known as Swifties, that the pop star will arrive in Las Vegas on time for the Super Bowl.
